There is one defense of tilapia:
It's abundant and not in danger of being over fished.
Lionfish should be fished into extinction in the Carribean!

I've dined at Pressly's and had snapper with the head on.
It wasn't the 100 candle dinner but by making a prior reservation (don't remember the cost but can't forget the night) we had the place and Pressly all to ourselves.

Bon appetit!

I'm glad I'm not a Talapia fish,,,,,They get no respect,,,no respect I say,,,,they get speared,,fried,,eaten and then they say they didn't want to eat you anyway.....Respect the Talapia I say....

[Rum-polephoreskin]

You're right Fred Stripe!

Eating tilapia is one we we can preserve the oceans (and they don't taste terrible - how's that for a ringing endorsement).
Eating lionfish is a great way to help the Caribbean Eco-system.

Nothing wrong with Tilapia for sure.
Anyone ever had the Goggle-eye fish.
Little fishes with great big bulging eyes.
They are harvested only during a certain time in either Jan or Feb and I remember seeing several small fishing boats with nets in an ever decreasing circle, 'trapping' them in the cove across from Sexy Rexy's.
Seems they are a local treat as they were being sold all along the west end by the bucketful after the harvesting . Rexy had a fire going near the road and was cooking them and a crowd of people were there to get their taste.
While staying at Seastar the goggle-eye were being prepared for a special staff meal and we managed to score a plateful. They were steamed and served with pieces of lime and were quite delicious. (we didn't eat the eyes though).

[Fred Stripe]

Yeah,Frank,we don't eat the eyes,,,but when I fish dies in the ocean the first thing the others eat are the eyes? Kinda like that green stuff in the lobster,the rue?

We just got back from our 5 night stay at Catcha,we ate there a few times,snacks and meals and lots of cocktails and beers.We thought the price we paid at the end of our stay was very reasonable,actually under what we expected.We were there to party and laugh and dance and just break free from life so i guess it's all in what you are looking for.Definately enough good places to eat in Negril so we change it up every year.The bar tenders,Bradley and Kevin looked out for us big time,never had an empty glass or bottle.Cheers!

Anyone can have an 'off' night. I've heard nothing but good things about Catcha.
